It can be held in our muscles, joints, and nervous system, leading to feelings of heaviness and fatigue. In this workshop, we will use gentle vinyasa yoga and restorative poses to create a safe container for these emotions. We will learn to listen to our body’s wisdom, allowing ourselves to feel, release, and hold space for our grief without judgment. Through writing exercises, we’ll then explore and ground the feelings that arise, moving them from the body to the page through our written words. 2:00pm Lunch 3:30pm – 5:30pm Free Time or Reiki Sessions with Tess***  5:30pm Guided Meditation: Empowering Your Inner Guru 7:00pm Evening Meal Friday, August 21, 2026 (Workshop) 7:30am Silent Meditation 8:00am Morning Vinyasa Yoga Practice 9:45am Breakfast 11:30am – 2:00pm Retreat Workshop: Cosmic Compass: Astrology for Navigating Life’s Changes The stars can offer profound insights into our life’s cycles, challenges, and opportunities.
